Dear Rain

DEAR RAINHer miniscule of hopebeaten,tornby the angry sea of lawlessness.Her rights of existence stolenno matter what she didto fight.She came with pure intentionsto work in a foreign landno agendas of hostility...essence rationalized..but then...Rain...take the cloth of her penitencesmell the sweat and tears mixed,inhale its scent into the best part of youand feel...the chain of achesattached to it.Be the burning witness,be her voice when she wants to fretwhile handwashing the blood stainstick to her employer's undiesBe the voice when she hold back her tongueto speak out her hearteverytime they scold her,abuse her..tear her apart...Rain,free of restraint,free to be free,carry the pearls from her eyesto the sea...To the sea where she bank many of the black pearlsproduced by her weary eyesMost of them were breedby her cold-hearted employers;the equity stealers.Sense her Rainand note her fears as she walk,she feebly walkon the labyrinthof daily, deadly nightmares.Cleanse her inner sensewash away other's brash pretencethat cost their souls a cent,cleanse it away...away from her...As you keep pouring,Rainplease whisper to her..Never surrender,Don't quit,Don't fall,Don't fall...
